目的:探讨克氏针预制弯度内固定治疗儿童前臂骨折的临床疗效。方法:自2019年10月至2022年12月采用克氏针预制弯度内固定治疗儿童前臂骨折32例,男25例,女7例;年龄3~15(8.0±0.5)岁;左侧18例,右侧14例;桡、尺骨双骨折24例,Monteggia骨...目的:探讨克氏针预制弯度内固定治疗儿童前臂骨折的临床疗效。方法:自2019年10月至2022年12月采用克氏针预制弯度内固定治疗儿童前臂骨折32例,男25例,女7例;年龄3~15(8.0±0.5)岁;左侧18例,右侧14例;桡、尺骨双骨折24例,Monteggia骨折3例,Galeazzi骨折4例,桡骨颈“歪戴帽”骨折1例。记录患者手术时间、术中出血量、X线透视次数、骨折愈合时间和并发症,并采用上肢功能评定表(disabilities of arm,shoulder and hand,DASH)和Grace-Eversman前臂双骨折评价系统评估克氏针预制弯度内固定治疗儿童前臂骨折的临床疗效。结果:32例患者获得随访,时间2~12(7.16±2.51)个月。术中出血量(20.68±5.50)ml,X线透视次数(5.80±2.50)次,手术时间(24.34±5.10)min。32例均骨折顺利愈合,愈合时间(8.82±1.62)周。2例出现并发症,其中1例术后拇长伸肌腱断裂,1例术后预制弯度克氏针在骨髓腔旋转导致骨折明显移位。DASH评分0~16(8.32±1.50)分;依据Grace-Eversman前臂双骨折评价系统:优28例,良2例,可2例。结论:克氏针预制弯度内固定治疗儿童前臂骨折具有损伤小,出血少,复位好、固定牢靠,骨折愈合快,功能恢复良好的优点。展开更多
